Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited[Regnum] Hackers obtained the personal data of 8.8 million Danish residents from a government registry using the password "123456." The leak was accidentally discovered by an official almost two weeks after the hack.
The case in question concerns Denmark's Central Register of Persons (CPR). Access to the platform was gained through an IT company account, which was hacked using one of the most common password combinations.
According to the Register, at least three company accounts, including an administrator account, used the same password.
The registry accessed by hackers contains approximately 11 million records, including those of deceased people and people who have moved abroad.
Earlier in France, hackers managed to remotely initiate forced defrosting of supermarket refrigerators and set the temperature to 50 degrees Celsius. As a result, tons of food spoiled. In total, approximately 150 Intermarché stores, several Metro stores, a number of independent businesses, including butchers, and some Coopérative U and Leclerc stores were affected.
